Thanks, ya'll. When I saw this antique oil can (there's even antique oil still in it, LOL) I knew I had to have it for a still life. The color of the can is true to the object, as I only made the color of the background sepia. #3294903

That metalic tone is terrific and the background suits it o a "t". Like Susan, I wondered about a drip forming on the tip of the spout; then I wondered if a squirt would be a plus; then I considered a drop falling into a pool of oil...then I turned off my noisy mind and went back to just enjoying your creation. Happy birthday...how come we get the present? #3296710

Happy B'day, and my opinion is 2/3 of the background is too bright. We tend to look at bright highlights first, it destracts from the subject. If the background would be like behind the subject overall, this would be awesome!Regards #3300275

Many thanks, Thomas. It's not translating well on my screen here at work. It does look blown out on the left side. At home on my calibrated monitor, it's perfect. I might try to rework it and even out the left side. Many thanks for your great critique! #3300405

Congrats! I love the colors in the can and the way the light hits it. Beatufiul work. I had to check out your gallery, too (you have the same name as my Rhodesian Ridgeback, my baby!). I love your work. It does as you intend it to!! #3507625
